Atlas Salt Supports Memorial University Researchers with their Passive Array for Critical Minerals on the Island of Newfoundland
ST. GEORGE'S, NEWFOUNDLAND AND LABRADOR / ACCESS Newswire / August 7, 2025 / Atlas Salt Inc. ("Atlas Salt" or the "Company") (TSXV:SALT)(OTCQB:REMRF) announces that it is actively supporting Memorial University of Newfoundland ("Memorial University") researchers with their Passive Array for Critical Minerals on the Island of Newfoundland ("PACMIN") to help to better understand the geological structures and the plate-tectonic processes that assembled the island hundreds of millions of years ago. PACMIN is a joint initiative between Memorial University, Université du Québec à Montréal, and Yale University, with financial and in-kind support from Natural Resources Canada and select business partners. It has deployed a new network of 22 seismograph stations across Newfoundland to record ground vibrations and use these signals to image the internal structure of the Earth beneath Newfoundland. This information will improve the understanding of the deep tectonic processes that played a role in the island's formation and will help to better determine the location of critical minerals that are needed to facilitate the transition to a greener economy, a goal consistent with Atlas Salt's business objectives. In support of this initiative, PACMIN has installed a seismograph at one of Atlas Salt's facilities in St. George's. The PACMIN project will run through the end of summer 2027. Dr. J. Kim Welford, Principal Investigator for PACMIN and Associate Professor, Department of Earth Sciences, Memorial University, commented, "Enhanced knowledge of the geological structure of Newfoundland could help to provide economic benefits for future generations of Newfoundlanders. We are pleased that corporate citizens of the Island of Newfoundland, particularly those with a direct involvement in the mining community such as Atlas Salt, have offered their assistance with the PACMIN project." Nolan Peterson, CEO of Atlas Salt, added, "We are excited to be supporting Memorial University researchers on this initiative. Atlas Salt has a strong commitment to increasing mining activities and initiatives in the Province of Newfoundland and Labrador, and we believe the knowledge gained through the PACMIN project will be of tremendous benefit in this respect. We look forward to building our relationship with Memorial University, and we anticipate additional collaborations with academia in the future." About Atlas Salt Atlas Salt is developing Canada's next salt mine and is committed to responsible and sustainable mining practices. With a focus on innovation and efficiency, the company is poised to make significant contributions to the North American salt market while upholding its values of environmental stewardship and community engagement.

Formation Metals Mobilizes to Site in Preparation for Near-Term Fully Funded 10,000 Metre Drill Program at the Advanced N2 Gold Project; Closes Final Tranche, Increasing Exploration Budget to ~$5.7M
Highlights: VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESS Newswire / August 7, 2025 / Formation Metals Inc. ('Formation' or the 'Company') (CSE:FOMO)(FSE:VF1)(OTCQB:FOMTF), a North American mineral acquisition and exploration company, is pleased to announce that its technical team has mobilized to its N2 Gold Property ('N2" or the 'Property'), located 25 km south of Matagami, Quebec, ahead of its fully funded maiden 10,000 metre drill program. The Company anticipates commencing on the program shortly, with an initial 10,000 metres planned comprising Phase 1 as part of its planned 20,000 metre multi-phase drill program at N2, an advanced gold project with a global historic resource of ~870,000 ounces comprised of 18 Mt grading 1.4 g/t Au (~809,000 oz Au) across four zones (A, East, RJ-East, and Central)2,3 and 243 Kt grading 7.82 g/t Au (~61,000 oz Au) across the RJ zone2,4. Deepak Varshney, CEO of Formation Metals, stated, 'We are very grateful for the support Formation has received from new and past shareholders. With over five million in working capital, Formation is now positioned to commence on the most aggressive drill program our company has embarked on to date, with 10,000 metres fully funded for 2025.' Mr. Varshney continued: 'We are very excited to commence our maiden drill program at N2. Based on our on-going review and planning for Phase 1, we feel comfortable in expanding our maiden drill program to a fully funded 10,000 metres. Given the scale of the property, the compelling geological data, and the Abitibi Greenstone Belt's established history as a hotbed for gold mining, we are hopeful that the program will deliver our goal of delivering a near-surface multi-million-ounce deposit at N2. We see the potential for a significant gold deposit at N2, and our maiden 10,000-metre drilling program will mark the beginning of Formation's pursuit of that goal. Our maiden program will focus on building on the successes of our predecessors. The drilling discoveries made by Agnico-Eagle and Cypress show the potential at N2. With gold at almost $3,400, over 4 times the price in 2008 when Agnico last drilled the project, we believe that the timing is perfect for N2 and look forward to a very busy upcoming field season.' Comprising 87 claims totaling ~4,400 ha within the Abitibi sub province of Northwestern Quebec, Formation's flagship N2 Gold Project is an advanced gold project with a global historic resource of 877,000 ounces: 18.2 Mt grading 1.48 g/t Au (~809,000 oz Au) across four zones (A, East, RJ-East, and Central)2,3 and 243 Kt grading 7.82 g/t Au (~61,000 oz Au) across the RJ zone2,4. There are six primary auriferous mineralized zones in total, each open for expansion along strike and at depth. Compilation and geophysical work by Balmoral Resources Ltd. (now Wallbridge Mining) from 2010 to 2018 generated numerous targets that have not yet been investigated with diamond drilling. The drill program is designed to focus on discovery drilling at new high-potential targets along the mineralization strikes at the 'A', 'RJ' and 'Central' zones in the northern part of the Property in order to discover new auriferous trends and unlock new zones of gold mineralization. The program will also focus on high-priority infilling and expansion targets in these zones to significantly enhance the auriferous zones identified to-date (Figure 1). Historical highlights from the top two priority zones include: The Company also believes that N2 has significant base metal potential, where it recently completed a revaluation process which revealed significant copper and zinc intercepts within historic drillholes known to have significant gold grades (>1 g/t Au). Assay results range from 200 to 4,750 ppm and 203 ppm to 6,700 ppm, for copper and zinc, respectively, indicating strong potential for elevated base metal (Cu-Zn) concentrations across the property, specifically at the A and RJ zones. Property wide geology at N2 features volcanic and sedimentary rocks formed in regional anticlinal and synclinal flexures. Three principal deformation structures (Figure 1), oriented along the known NW-SE to WNW-ESE structural trends typical of VMS deposits in the Matagami region, function as critical geologic controls for mineralization on the property. For the 2025 exploration season, Formation plans to concentrate its efforts on the northern part of N2, targeting gold deposit expansion and discovery along identified zones and fault systems associated with the main deformation features (specifically WNW-ESE trend), with IP surveys and drilling planned to model mineralized zones that will hopefully contribute to an updated NI-43 101 compliant resource. Formation will also look to further review historic base metal assays from older drill core and undertake additional work in 2025 to assess the property's copper and zinc potential. The Company is pleased to announce that it has closed its final tranche of its non-brokered private placement raising gross proceeds of $403,845.74 through the issuance of 928,381 charity flow-through units (the 'CFT 4MH Unit') at $0.435 per CFT 4MH Unit (the 'CFT 4MH Unit Offering'). Each CFT 4MH Unit consists of one Share (a 'CFT 4MH Share') and one common share purchase warrant (a 'CFT 4MH Warrant'), with each CFT 4MH Warrant exercisable to acquire one additional Share at an exercise price of $0.60 for a period of two (2) years from the closing date of the CFT 4MH Unit Offering. Each CFT 4MH Share qualifies as a 'flow-through share' within the meaning of subsection 66(15) of the Income Tax Act (Canada). No finder's fees were paid in connection with the CFT 4MH Unit Offering. All securities issued are subject to a statutory hold period of four months following the date of issuance in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws. The Company intends to use the net proceeds of CFT 4MH Unit Offering for fieldwork at the Company's exploration projects.
